What each kanji means
Benevolence — the highest Confucian virtue, and the character in nearly every Japanese emperor's name for a millennium (Hirohito 裕仁, Akihito 明仁, Naruhito 徳仁). Jin (仁) carries imperial moral weight.
The coral of 珊瑚 — treasure formed slowly in the sea. A modern favorite in girls' names like Riko (莉瑚), it evokes oceanic beauty and preciousness.
Lapis lazuli's 瑠 (瑠璃) — jewel-blue depth. Ruri (瑠璃) and Ruka (瑠花) sparkle with it; the character exists almost solely for beautiful things.
